The publication “Access to funding sources for organic family agriculture: manual for leaders and directors of producer associations” is a contribution of the AGROECO project for producers and their organizations and aims to support them in the elaboration of their proper project proposals to access local funding. Agroecology has shown to be the most efficient of all existing models in agricultural development for smallholders, particularly in the Peruvian Andes. Agroecological intensification demands that the Government should facilitate the creation of sustainable business with appropriate investment in infrastructure, facilities, public services and training. Nowadays, many farmers with a heterogeneous base (land size, organization level, investment capacity) have the possibility to access several funding mechanisms to strengthen their organization and be part of the value chain in best conditions. Nevertheless, the market and the credit system can be risky fields to assume as smallholders. This manual gives insights in finance basics and value chains terminology and provides practical steps for participatory business plan development, with the aim that with the right orientation and access to funding sources, farmer organizations can move towards a better livelihood in rural areas and overcome food insecurity.
